This is what legacy land looks like. Five and a quarter acres of oceanfront land with nearly 300 feet of coastline, sweeping Pacific views, and a backdrop of coconut palms against black lava rock. Private and secluded in feel, yet close to paved roads, utilities at the street, and established neighbors among some notable oceanfront estates. The existing two-story, single-wall cedar home sits hidden from the road, reached by a driveway that winds through a lush canopy of trees before opening to the house site with its dramatic ocean views framed by coconut palms. The structure features open beam ceilings, quartzite floors, and an open layout built to make the most of the setting, with views and ventilation on both levels. The roof and gutters were replaced in 2024. Upstairs is a large open room with walls of windows, a smaller office with closet, and a covered lanai with ocean views. Downstairs offers a bathroom with tiled shower and additional enclosed space. Some plumbing and electrical are roughed in from prior service. The home is solid and has real character. With some work, this place becomes something rare: a true private sanctuary on the ocean. Enjoy fishing, whale and turtle watching, and the constant sound of the surf from your own stretch of rocky coastline with patches of sandy beach and tide pools. Power is available at the street. Off-grid photovoltaic is a natural fit in this sunny climate, and a small catchment system is already in place. This is a rare chance to secure a piece of the Big Island's coastline before it's gone. Showings by appointment only.

Keonepoko 2 Ahupua'a, located between Kapoho and Keaau, is a coastal and residential Hawaiian Beaches neighborhood with oceanfront lava flats and a grid of quiet streets. The neighborhood reads as low-slung island homes and newer builds set against palms, black rock, and wide skies. The character concentrates around the Highway 130 corridor near the Hawaiian Beaches turnoff, where roadside fruit stands, plate-lunch counters, and service shops set a practical, local rhythm. Pahoa Village Museum, Kaleo’s Bar & Grill, and the Pahoa Fresh Fish market act as familiar community pillars. Shoreline pull-offs frame sunrise views and salt-air walks, while nearby Pahoa adds galleries and small-town errands. Trade winds and passing showers keep the landscape lush and changeable.
